Holy crap!! I've just recently got into spectrum emulation and I am having an absolute blast on this fantastic new game called Ninjajar! for the ZX Spectrum.

It's very similar to Alex Kidd in Miracle World for the SMS.

I urge everyone to give a try. Srsly.

Edit: I tried playing it on my A1200 but it's way too slow with just a 8mB ram upgrade.

Yep, the new game from the Mojon Twins rocks. Their best so far. Seems a mix of Alex Kidd and Wonder Boy in Monster World. I hope they will do a C64 port too, as always.

So I've finally got round to putting a few Amiga games on my arcade cabinet. MAME had distracted me for quite a while.

It works really well. Turrican 2 and Moonstone where the first to try. The interface is just perfect for these types of games. If you have a spare corner in your gaff make or buy an old cabinet you won't regret it.

Yeah, some Amiga games are just perfect for arcade cabinets... I played an Amiga in a cabinet myself a while ago, we played Turrican 2 and Pang.. both excellently suited for an arcade cabinet.

I would highly recommend you try out Batman, and the spiritual sequel, Head Over Heels.
They're both awesome isometric exploration type games.

I've started playing Gabriel Knight 1 again, for the first time in many, many years... I've forgotten a lot.

I'm playing it with this Swedish guy I know... well, that is - he is actually doing the playing and streaming, while we're chatting on Skype

Played through the first 4 chapters of Gabriel Knight 2, with that Swedish guy (we started yesterday).

Very nice game, if you can look past the cheesy FMV style.

F1 2013 (PC) - Still going through the "learning" stages. Get little time for anything these days.

Miniclips Pool (Android) - Great little time waster when I'm out and about having a five min break.

Just got myself an Amiga 1200 with CFHD and have rediscovered Rodland. I originally played it on the C64 back in the day and had forgotton it completely. It's got that 'just one more go' compulsion about it.

I've been playing Zelda64 OOT on my JXD gaming tablet lately, i would like to complete it again someday.

And on PC i have been playing quite a lot of The Forest Alpha, very cool game!

Plus very soon i will be playing a lot of star wars on the gamecube, as soon as they arrive in the mail.
